EASTERN EXOTICA MEETS S
Out of a rich historical mix of rule from both
the Swedish West and the Russian East, Helsinki
has grown into a vibrant European capital with
a character all its own.
As a city that works, Helsinki is the ideal setting
for incentives and events of every description.
Plenty of centrally located, full-service hotels
and meeting facilities are just part of what
makes Helsinki a dedicated incentive and
conference city.
SCANDINAVIAN CHICIn summer, wildly popular ski jet safaris offer
an invigorating alternative to the standard boat
cruises winding along the city's shores or nearby
lakes. Join an ATV safari across ever-changing
terrain, through swamps and marshland up
rocky cliffs, across grassy meadows and back
into the thick of the forest. Endless summer
daylight makes light of time and confining
schedules: go sailing at midnight, sauna at
dawn, what's stopping you? Similarly festivals
of light, ice sculpting, skiing and polar bear
swimming make winter something not to be
shunned but celebrated, embraced.
Winter may be cold, but it's what you do with
winter - and everything it offers - that's im-
portant. The solution (Finns are a solutions-
driven people) is to get out and make the
absolute most of it, to enjoy it. Finns will do
anything and then some given a little ice and
snow, from ice skating, cross-country skiing,
even boarding, in the parks, to ice fishing,
speed skating and swimming in the ice - it's
simply a matter of suiting up in the right
seasonal gear.
EASY TO COME,EASY TO GO
Helsinki is easy to reach by air, rail or sea.
Around 40 airlines operate to Helsinki,
and Helsinki-Vantaa airport boasts more than
180 international landings daily.
Only 25 minutes away from the city centre,
it has been rated among the best by its users for many years in a row.
With more time to spare, you could choose a picturesque ferry
crossing either from Sweden, Germany and Estonia.
Or for an easterly route, you may sample a train ride
from St. Petersburg or Moscow.
In many ways Helsinki is the perfect city: big
enough to enjoy both extensive variety and rich
diversity, yet contained enough to experience
easily, enjoyably and safely. Compact in size,
there's only half a million inhabitants in the city
itself. This translates into a relaxed, friendly and
safe atmosphere that invites delegates to enjoy
and to make use of their stay to the full. Practically
everything in central Helsinki -
hotels, restaurants, cafes, shops
and sights - are within a walking
distance. And if not in the mood
for a stroll, you can always take a taxi or use
Helsinki's efficient public transport. Traffic in a
city this small is a breeze compared to many.
Language is not a problem either. As most Finns
take it for granted that you don't speak their
language, they are glad to make use of their
English or other European languages they mas-
ter. Finland is in fact a bilingual
country, the second official lan-
guage being Swedish.

The sea is an integral part of Helsinki life, which gives rise to swimming and sailing,
fishing and kayaking, and magical island sauna experiences. As Helsinki is essentially
a peninsula, it's virtually surrounded by sea. Everywhere you turn there's water and
in turn, everywhere you turn on the sea there's an island - one of nature's
marvellously exploited little paradoxes. The sea brings with it rugged shorelines, soft
beaches, near-untouched outlying islands, cruisers and schooners, seaside saunas,
glorious island restaurants, even living maritime fortresses.
THE EMBRACE OF THE SEA
Learn Tall Ship sailing skillson board schooner Inga-Lill
Schooner Inga-Lill is a ship made of pine wood,
tar and linseed oil. She is a unique sailing ship
from the first half of 20th century. The new crew
will learn to sail her while taking part in steering,
navigating and different manoeuvres. For the
accepted crew members there will naturally be
the daily rum tot, not to forget the special archi-
pelago delicacies served by the dinner in the
saloon later in the evening. Schooner Inga-Lill is
a traditional 115-foot (34 m) Finnish sailing cargo
vessel that used to sail stones, sand, timber and
other products from the islands for almost 50
years. Now she is totally restored and her task is
to keep the unique archipelago sailing traditions
alive for many years to come.
Historical Soldiersat Suomenlinna
The city's island fortress of Suomenlinna is both
a living museum and thriving community which
bears witness to Helsinki's strategic significance
and intriguing past. Erected in the mid-18th
century by the Swedish Crown, it was attacked
during the Crimean War by a large Anglo-French
fleet as a Russian stronghold
and a gateway to the coveted
East. Approaching the King's
Gate today you can still be
greeted by Old Garrison
musketeers and explosive
cannon shot.
Suomenlinna's friendly historical soldiers run to
greet the group arriving by ferry at the jetty and
present flowers to the ladies. These jolly fellows
escort the group to the event venue, where a
cannon is fired, a guitar accompanies dancing within
the walls of the fortress, and a little "tar schnapps"
is tried. The soldiers then
escort the group to the
dinner venue, where the
humorous programme
continues with singing,
music, stories and other
delights.
